And make us lose the good we oft might win
By fearing to attempt.”

So when you visiting the US or Europe then?

When I stop being poor. Or when we fix our economy, which probably won't ever happen.

When I visit America I will come visit you. I'm planning on Chile, Argentina and Brazil (and probably Northern America as well I guess)

"For a star to be born there is one thing that must happen: a gaseous nebula must collapse.

So collapse.  

Crumble.

This is not your destruction.

This is your birth."

"Heretofore, the mother, while loving her child with the intensity of a sole affection, had schooled herself to hope for little other return than the waywardness of an April breeze; which spends its time in airy sport, and has its gusts of inexplicable passion, and is petulant in its best of moods, and chills oftener than caresses you, when you take it to your bosom; in requital of which misdemeanors, it will sometimes, of its own vague purpose, kiss your cheek with a kind of doubtful tenderness, and play gently with your hair, and then begone about its other idle business, leaving a dreamy pleasure in your heart."

"Faith is a state of openness or trust. In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all. " - Alan Watts

 

"Man is a little germ that lives on an unimportant rock ball, that revolves about an insignificant star on the outer edges of one of the smaller galaxies. But on the other hand, if you think about that for a few minutes… I am absolutely amazed to discover myself on this rock ball, rotating around this spherical fire…it’s a very odd situation!" - Alan Watts

"In a world where there were no eyes, the sun would not be light. And that in a world where there were no soft skins, rocks would not be hard. Nor in a world where there were no muscles, would they be heavy. Existence is relationship." - Alan Watts (This one is my favorite.)

"And when the world got tired of playing with you, and came to rest squarely on your shoulders, you welcomed it, greeting the pain like an old friend, one you'd known your whole life."

[DonValentino]

“To be in someone’s mind. To have complete control. It’s like the thrill of being near the executioner’s switch. Knowing that at any moment, you could throw it, but knowing you never will…but you could, never isn’t the right word, because I could…and I might…I probably will.”

"Certainly there is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never really care for anything else thereafter."

"The price of being a sheep is boredom. The price of being a wolf is loneliness. Choose one or the other with great care." 

 

My new motto

"They took life as it came, gladly; took death as it came, without care. They had no mind to fight Tao. They did not try by their own contriving, to help Tao along. These are the ones we call true persons."
